Review by ren
Rated 4 out of 5
by ren, a year agoGood add-on, lots of customization. The default voice is annoying and hard to understand (imo) but there's so many to choose from after opening up the options menu. They are all named, which makes it easier to switch between different ones if you want. There are some silly ones (like "bells" or "bubbles.") and you can adjust the speed and pitch, too.
My only complaint is that it is kinda convoluted to get it to work with PDFs, which is the main thing i was planning on using it for. I'm willing to put in the extra effort, but it is annoying. Especially because I deal with pretty severe brain fog at times, and those are the times I would want to use this. Having to take extra steps when you're already confused as a baseline... it's not fun. Simple is better. If this could be simplified or side stepped, this would get 5 stars from me.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Marty, 6 days agoThe update from July 20, 2025, did not fix the error either. Whenever I want to listen to something on the Internet, the error message “Not allowed error” always appears. I use the Google Translate German voice. Now, I'm fed up. I'm definitely going to uninstall this extension now.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 19169632, a month agoMerhaba, daha önce kullanmıştım. Şimdi açık görünmesine rağmen uzantıyı bir türlü aktive edemiyorum. Forumda arama yaptım, ayarları kontrol ettim ama bir türlü sorunu tespit edemedim. Nasıl ilerlemeliyim? Destek ekibi veya kullanıcılara yardım amaçlı yazıyorum, teşekkürler.

- Rated 5 out of 5by whereistruth, 2 months agothe default voice is not that great but if you click on the icon and go to options you can find more voices and you can even buy some but i dont think it will go to the person that wrote the addon but even with the free 1sif you go down the list for a while you will see the 2nd google options and those are better play with the pitch and speed to get them pretty good i dont have the disposal income to be spending on the paid 1s but the test they show seems to be even better ifyou go that route any way hope this helped have fun every 1
- Rated 3 out of 5by avtolik, 2 months agoI don't like the opening and pinning a tab and switching the focus on it. It breaks my flow.
